Sunday, October 3rd. This an-nouncement
will he received with
much delight by those who for
weeks and months, have been look-ing
forward to the day, when such
a magnificent church edifice would
be finished. The holding of such a
service as would be appropriate and
befitting and also rejoice over the
accomplishment of so great a task,
means far more than mere words
Call express.
The last nail has been driven, the
artist's brush has been ' laid aside,
the seats add furnishings put in
place, and as the noise of the busy
mechanics have died away, the
house is now in order to be dedicat-of
the Master. The little couragious
congregation has been victorious
over many discouragements, and
today as the reward for their faith-ful
and untiring efforts, they have
one of the prettiest and most
modern church buildings in North-ern
Indiana.
Such a building is an honor to the
membership, dud an ornament to
the lb Greentown. Handsome
and co lions as it is, nothing
has ' itted which would be
